It was in the fall of 2006 and the American’s were transfixed in front of
their TV’s, some in fear and some with elation of possibly
participating in an epic election upset to take power away from
the Republican lock on the presidency, Congress and the Senate
of the United States. The American media was silent so most Americans
did not know that events were rapidly moving towards a showdown
between the United States and Europeagainst Iran, Russia and China. These events were earlier battled in psych
wars in the United Nations, propaganda wars over the international
airwaves were now moving for a military confrontation between the global
powers of the west against the global powers of the east. Like Greece and Persia of old, the global powers of domination were active
again to claim the prize: world domination. The airwaves a few
weeks earlier were shouting the fear of the impendingWorld
War III, Armageddon or the War of all wars that was coined by the
veteran American international peace negotiator and former Republican
Secretary of State, Henry Kissinger as the “War of Civilization”,
had now gone silent.

For over a century, whether
Republican or Democrat, the global domination by a single unifying
world order continued its relentless pace. To get to its final
destination, all national parties must someday come together
to make “peace with great security” on earth. Was that day at
hand? Given the picture of the future by the Hebrew prophets of
old, an epic war was threatening to occur. Was this to set the
stage for the final drama of the ages in preparation for the
coming of the messiah? Were all the political parties of the world
about to be persuaded either by military, psychological or covert wars
to arrive at a universal understanding, there must be peace on earth?
What would it take to persuade them all?

As America was absorbed
in her political war on who would control American national politics,
three American naval armadas were silently heading to the Middle East to rendezvous
with a fourth coming from the Indian Ocean. They were to engage
in the largest military exercise in history in the Persian Gulf.

While Europe was asleep in
confidence of regaining the momentum for peace in the Middle East
by placing her soldiers on the northern borders of Israel in Lebanon, the largest European NATO naval presence in the Mediterranean Sea
since World War II stood poised for military conflict. Will conflict
erupt as the players of the two opposing forces seek global
domination were poised in preparation for battle?

We begin our journey
looking at the increasing probability that the next two years
(2006-2008) will fulfill the rising expectation that we are in the biblical
and prophetic confluence and conjunction of the following biblical prophetic
events. These will herald the coming of the Messiah. We have been
asked to “watch and be ready” but it appears that most of God’s
people are asleep and clueless.

Yet the finger of the God of Israel is writing over the skyline of Israel a message as significant as He
wrote on the grand ballroom of King Belshazzar’s banquet hall. Hours
later the Empire of Babylon disappeared from history. A confluence
of the prophecies of the Jewish and Israeli prophets of old
were about to be unleashed upon this planet in a vast
avalanche.

As we look over the geo-political-religious
world we find these seven prophetic streams emerging and converging
into a mighty prophetic river. The Naval Armadas of the United Statespoised in the Persian Gulf with the Iranian Revolutionary Forces
in “Yellow” alert, the highest military alert next to outright
war may begin the final epic battle of Daniel 8.

1.The century longglobal
war between the global forcesseeking world domination from
the oriental east and the occidental west, the War between the Ram with two Great Horns and the he-Goat
with the Great Horn in Daniel 8, may be
about to finish as portrayed to Daniel twenty five hundred
years ago. This military, psychological and covert war will culminate
in the final confrontation between theglobal
forces as envisioned by the late Roman
Catholic Pope John Paul II as the Golden
Internationale and the Red
Internationale. This article
looks at the possibility that the final chapter of the epic war
between the East and the West may begin after Succot in October-November
2006.

What has continued to be played
out in the international picture is the fifth year of a seven year war
called the War against Terror.

2.The seven yearWar of Gog from the Land of Magog against the Land of Magogin Ezekiel
38-39 began according to the rabbanim
on the 7th day of Succot 2001 with the American coalition
invasion into Afghanistan. It will prophetically be completed just prior
to the 2008 American presidential election year.

Simultaneous to the War of Gog from the Land of Magog is also an
epic battle between fundamental Christianity and fundamental
Islam.

3.The War of the King of the North against the King of the
South in Daniel 11 as the War of Terror
(Gogomogog War) also started also on the 7th day of
Succot 2001. On this date, America entered into a
war with Afghanistan. This Vatican inspired War of Terror was
now fronted as the “Christian” King of the North against the fundamentalist
Islamic radicals and the Shi’ite inspired “Islam’s” King of the South.

As the prophets of old have
foretold, there will arise a person of international and universal
acclaim that will claim the ability to bring peace to this
planet.

4.The Rise of the Final One World Order by the anti-Messiah will portray a powerful leader that will hold great
powers of the satanic occultic corruption (Christian Cabbalah and
Islamic Qabbalah) of the divine Kabbalah given to the Jews.

There will arise two global
religious powers that will proclaim to reveal to the world the
spiritual understanding of the will of the God of the Universe.

Finally, from the east will
arrive a military presence uniting China, the Koreas, Japan, Indonesia and India. Would we ever expect that these mortal enemies
would find a common cause to unite these eastern nations on this
planet?

7.The Kings of the East of Revelation 16 may come on the nuclear denotation and confrontation
with North
Korea upon the new mutual friendship of Japan’s Prime
Minister Shinzo Abe with Chinese Premier Wen Jiaboa and the ascent
of South Korean’s Foreign Minister Ban
Ki-Moon as the new secretary-general to
replace the departing Kofi Annan at the United Nations.

Up to the days of the fall
festivals 2006, the Bush Administration
was reveling in a job well done in guiding the American political
landscape to a victory for the Republican Party. The job
approval ratings of President George Bush were topped out at
forty-nine percent as he walked to the podium of the United Nations
to deliver a passionate speech for the wisdom of democracy in guiding
the world nations to a world of peace.

A little over twenty four hours
later, the warning and war call of the great Shofar resounded around
the world. The sun set over the horizon of Jerusalem on the eve
of September 22, 2006. Rosh Hashanah and the new Jewish year
5767 had begun. Republican America was confident as the economic
climate was superb and the stock market was soaring to new and record
highs. The religious landscape was calm and serene as the Laodicean
Christian Church was asleep and clueless to her fate.

Yet on this day, two other
pivotal events occurred. The fall solar equinox heralded a new season
and the month long festival of Ramadan began, two events that rarely
coincide. Overall, few were watching the “handwriting on the
wall” as the hour of God’s judgment appeared to be coming.

Then geo-political landscape went into convulsions
as the following news riveted the American public. According to William
Koenig’s Eye View, the October 6, 2006 news report, the following events
occurred:

September 25 – Bob Woodward
prepared to release his new book, “State of Denial”.

September 27 – Colorado school gunman took six students hostage, killing one and himself.

September 29 – Principle
in a Wisconsin school was slain by an angry student.

September 29 – Congressman Mark
Foley (R-Fla.) resigned, escaped into hiding and ended up in
alcohol rehabilitation for allegations of illicit emails to young
male pages in the Congress of the United States.

September 29 - The Bush
White House was in full damage control over the revelations of Bob
Woodward’s book.

October 1 – “60 Minutes”
interviewed Bob Woodward.

October 2 – Five Amish students
and a teacher were gunned down in execution style by a lone
gunman. In the aftermath, the world saw the rare exhibition of
true forgiveness as the Amish reached out their hands in forgiveness
to the family of the gunman.

October 2 – The Republican
Congress was in full damage control over the erupting
revelations that the Foley emails were hidden by the Republican
Congressional administration.

October 3 – Secretary of State
Condoleezza Rice headed to the Middle East to try to change
the national media attention to the geo-politics of the Middle East.

October 3 – Republican Speaker
of the House Dennis Hastert was now alleged in a cover-up for over
two years of protecting what was being revealed as a gay Congressman
turned predator to young male pages and then given the
awesome responsibility of establishing legislation to
protect young children.

October 4 – The Dow ascended
to an all-time high and continued unstopped throughout the Succot
season.

October 4 – Iraq went into
a police state lock-down as unprecedented killings are found
implicating the Americantrained Iraqi police now turn killing
squads.

October 4 – The Bush
Administration began significant pressure on the Israeli Olhmert
government to open up the Gaza check-points while President
George Bush signs into law a $1.2 billion bill for a “Freedom
Net” to be cast along both the Canadian and
Mexican borderssealing American citizens in and non-authorized
foreigners out of the former “Land of the Free”.

October 4 – Bush job
approval ratings plummeted.

October 4 – Secretary of
State Condoleezza Ricearrived in the Middle East to form
a coalition of moderate Islamic “client” states to join the pendingAnglo-Allied Coalition with the promises to expend more money on
the Palestinians.

It was on October 1, 2006
that the Canadian research institute, The Centre for Research on
Globalism, published a highly documented and detailed research
article by Iranian researcher Mahdi Darius Nazemroaya, a former
military serviceman in the Canadian Armed Forces studying sociological
and classical history at the University of Ottawa. It
was titled, “The
March to War – Naval build-up in the Persian Gulf and the Eastern Mediterranean”.

Across the great seas of the
world the largest naval deployment since World War II was ordered
towards two theatres of war: the Persian Gulf and the Eastern Mediterranean Sea. The buildup of the Persian Gulf theatre
was predominately under U.S. command with the assistance of Canada while the East Mediterranean theatre was under the command of NATO
in the guise of a UN peace-keeping mission as ordered by the UN
Security Council Resolution 701.

As the security monitors have documented,
this naval armada has long been known to the Bush administration
and the Senators and Congressmen that are a part of American’s long
term strategic planning. Its coordination with aerial assault attacks
has been planned and practiced already in “war games” on prior
strategic missions.

The aerial bombing in Iran began on a covert basis two years ago in the middle of the year 2004
according to the May 2004 National Security Presidential Directive NSPD 35. This
is best known as the Nuclear Weapons Deployment Authorization as
formulated in CONPLAN 8022. Lest any should doubt, the War of
Terror with the resultant War in Afghanistan and Iraq has been posed
as short term strategic military engagements that in reality is not.
The hidden agenda has now been documented and now verbalized
by the Pentagon that we are in the midst of what is now called “a long
war”. With the risks involved, today we are pushing the limits
of military engagements that we dared not trod even in the height
of the “Cold War” without the fear of erupting World War III. As some
prophetic, political and military strategists have all concluded, it
was planned that way from the beginning.

It was only ten months ago on
December 31, 2005 that Martin Walker wrote, in the Global
Research.ca, an article titled, “U.S.
Prepares Iran Strike” that documented the German press
insight into “NATO intelligence sources who claimed that the NATO
allies had been informed that the United States is currently
investigating all possibilities of bringing
the mullah-led regime into line, including
military options.” They continued that “Washington
appears to be dispatching high-level officials to prepare its allies for a possible attack rather
than merely implyingthe possibility as it has repeatedly done
during the past year."

Two weeks prior, the German press Der Spiegel noted increasing number
of high profile visits into Turkey that included the American
officials suchas Secretary of State
Condoleezza Rice, the American CIA Porter Goss and FBI Director
Robert Mueller. The German News Agency, DDP, reported that Goss
had delivered to the Turkish prime minister and his security aides a
series of dossiers, one on the latest status of Iran's nuclear development and another containing intelligence on new links between Iran and al-Qaida. This dossier that was given to this military NATO ally included
that the United States would look the other way if the Turksmounted their own attacks at the PKK (Kurdish Workers Party) living
in bases in Iran that harbored what the Turks saw as separatist
groups fomenting rebellion and terrorist acts within Turkey.

In return for a “green
light” for Turkey to invade into Kurdistan, Iranian
Kurdistan, Iraqi Kurdistan and Kurdish populations in Syria, CIA
Director Porter Goss at his meeting with Turkish premier Recep
TAyyip Erdogan on December 12, 2006 asked for Turkey to “provide
political and logistical support for air strikes against Iranian nuclear
and military targets” and for “special cooperation from Turkish
intelligence to help prepare and monitor the operation.”

On September 20, 2006, it
was reported in the Chinese Xinhua News Service that “The Army
Times wrote, “the Pentagon has dismissed a media report that the U.S. Navy is secretly planning war with Iran.’” This was in response to a Time
Magazine article on September 18 that printed the announcement
by Chief of Naval Operations Mike Mullen asking subordinates to put
“fresh eyes” on prior engagement plans to block Iranian ports on the
Persian Gulf. The unspeakable question was why would American
seek to block the flow of oil that would surely affect the international
price of oil and the economies of all the major countries of the world?

In the report, it was admitted
that the Navy did issue a “prepare to deploy” order for a submarine, an Aegis-class cruiser, two mine-sweepers and
two mine hunters.”

As we possibly anticipate a military engagement or all
out war with Iran, we must first come to two conclusions: a war
is never anticipated or planned without a long time spent in preparation.

To the astute and knowledgeable
observer there will be signs of war preparations, mobilizations, and
deployments. Watching this “geo-political chessboard” has raised the high alert that some
form of conflict is in the making. Though we may consider that it
is political posturing or “mood
music, a way to step up the diplomatic
pressure on Tehran," the immensity and complexity with multiple
nationssuggest otherwise.

In the now famous D-Day in World
War II that was called “Operation Overlord”, the invasion of France in the Battle of Normandy that took place on June 6, 1944 was in preparation
for eighteen months. It all began at Casablanca, Morocco on January 1943 when the United States President F.D. Roosevelt and British
Prime Minister Winston Churchill sat down and mapped out the initial
strategy to invade Normandy. (Trevor Nevitt Dupuy (Col.); The Military History of World War
II, The Air War in the West: June 1941-April 1945 (Vol.7 ), Air Power and the
Normandy Invasion, pages 36-40, New York City, Franklin Watts Inc., 1963)

Yet in the most recent War in
Iraq, the emergence of the “Downing
Street Memo” confirmed that the 2003 war against Iran was decided between President George Bush and British Prime Minister Tony
Blair a year prior in 2002. As military observers have
confirmed, for twelve years between 1991 and 2003, there were progressive
military operations against Iraq by what is called the Anglo-American
alliance. During this time in multiple stages of aerial bombardment,
the Nation of Iraq was systematically weakened militarily over a period
of ten years.

History has now confirmed that it was this same Anglo-American alliance that
during the eight-yearWar between Iran and Iraq (1980-1988)
that both Iran and Iraq were manipulated by Great Britain and the
United States through their global economic monetary centers in London and New York. This was done, according to some strategic military
observers, with the goal to weaken both the Nations of Iran and Iraq in preparation
for future conquests. With that fact, the War with Iraq and the potential
War with Iran were planned for over twenty three years.

This Anglo-American Alliance is
only one of several global forces that are seeking to dominate and control
the world. This control is especially sought for in order to
control the natural resources of oil that churn the engines of
the western social cultures. The Anglo-American Alliance and its
future geo-political evolution were watched very closely by the intrepid
international observer and player,Pope John Paul II. In 1978,
this global force was called by the pontiff the Golden Internationale.

This alliance was a global
partnership between the former superpower Great Britain (“Anglo”)
and the emerging superpower after World War II, the United States (“American”). The European sector of this allianceexpanded
with the rise of the former nations of the ancient Roman Empire into
the political alliance of the European Union and its military arm, NATO
(North Atlantic Treaty Organization).

In the mind of Pope John
Paul II, this modern economic globalist superforce was a consortium
of the internationalists and the trans-nationalists fronted by the military
and economic power of the United States and financed by the global
banker of London, England. The military component of the
Golden Internationale became NATO (North Atlantic Treaty Organization) and
the supreme aerial power of the United States of America.

This same tactic of “divide and
conquer” now called Balkanization (“Division”), featured deliberate
attempts to induce and manufacture strife and division within countries
of the Middle East. When we see the riots, angry protests and
mob activities of the Islamic rage against the Western world,
in a strategic sense, we must also see itinduced by
provocation in a process of dividing and conquering the Islamic culture
by the West.

Though it is hard to consider such
a concept, the repeated models of dividing a national country called “Balkaniation” and then pacifying that
country called “Finlandization” led
many to suggest that this is the modern model of nation destruction
and rebuilding. It was most recently observed in the military
expansion of NATOeastward into the Balkans Region and Southeastern Europe. Before this dynamic region could be politically and
economically conquered, the regional power center, the Nation ofYugoslavia had to be dismantled. This was perceived as a “normal”European extension into the Middle East for here was the gateway to
the oil fields of the Islamic states. First NATO began shifting its military
bases eastward and then they began to secure the energy routes in the
region. This same strategy is at work today as the eyes
of America, the EU and NATO are now upon Iran and Syria.

The U.S. Navy flagship, the
U.S.S. Enterprise was deployed to the Arabian Sea, the Gulf of
Oman and the Persian Gulf on October 1, 2006 as part of the
expanding “War on Terror”, called “Operation Enduring Freedom.”
This nuclear powered aircraft carrier was first commissioned in 1961
and was the elite naval warship on the high seas. It carried a strange
square island that supported phased-array radar and a “beehive” on top this
island that housed a complex electronic warfare system. It was modernized
and refitted in 1980 and reclassified as a multi-mission
aircraft carrier and again went under major reconstruction in 1998.

Along with this aircraft
carrier was also a Carrier Strike Group 12 (CSG 12), the Destroyer
Squadron 2 (DESRON 2) and a Carrier Air Wing 1 (CVW 1) that was sent
with the published orders to “conduct naval security operations and aerial
missions in the mission.” The supporting warship with this carrier group
called the “Enterprise Strike Group” included; the destroyer U.S.S.
McFaul, the war frigate U.S.S. Nicholas, the battle cruiser
U.S.S. LeyteGulf, the attack submarine U.S.S. Alexandria,
and the “fast combat support ship”
U.S.N.S. Supply.

Special to this flotilla are special capabilities that may be unique to
the theatre of war in the Persian Gulf along the coastline of the
Nation of Iran. While the War on Terror to date has been confined
to the land locked nation of Afghanistan and the Nation of Iraq
whose ports are guarded by the United States and Britain, the Enterprise Strike Group
is carrying minesweepers and mine-hunters in anticipating a war path
against a maritime nation like Iran. The U.S.N.S. Supply’s main
capability is its speed in combat that may be used in close-quarter
combat with Iranian forces in the Persian Gulf. The swiftness of
this naval craft is designed to avoid the potential attacks
of Iranian cruise and anti-ship missile attacks.

Within this carrier strike
force, are several specialized “infiltration, aerial attack, and rapid
deployment units.” They include: the Marine Fighter Squadron 251,
the Electronic Attack Squadron 137 and the Airborne Early Warning
Squadron 123 whose special capabilities are in detecting Iranian
missiles and signaling warning to the rest of the U.S. Naval Fleet.
Also housed within this naval flotilla is a helicopter squadron,
the “Helicopter Anti-Submarine Squadron 11” that specializes in combating
enemy submarines stalking the Carrier Strike Force. The uniqueness of
this squadron is that the only indigenous submarine fleet in the Middle
East outside of Israelis the Nation of Iran.

A second aircraft strike force has also been deployed
to the Middle East; the Eisenhower
Strike Group out of Norfolk, Virginia
led by the nuclear battleship, U.S.S.
Dwight D. Eisenhower. In this flotilla
are included: “a cruiser, a destroyer, a war frigate,
a submarine escort and U.S. Navy supply ships. This naval
attack force was more than likely be positioned in the Gulf of Oman and the Arabian Sea while the Enterprise Attack Force will be
sent into the Persian Coast off the Iranian coastline.

A third assault or strike group
called the “Expeditionary Strike Group 5” had also set sail from
the Naval Station at San Diego, California towards the Persian Gulf.
This task force was led by the flagship, the assault ship
U.S.S. Boxer plus: a “dock landing vessel, the U.S.S. Comstock,
a battle cruiser the U.S.S. Bunker Hill, a guided-missile
hauling destroyer the U.S.S. Benfold and a guided-missile hauling
destroyer the U.S.S. Howard.

On board were 4,200 Marine and
Navy personnel expected to be deployed along the Persian Gulf from
the 15th Marine Expeditionary Unit at Camp Pendleton. They were
specially trained for rapid deployment such as an invasion into a
country. This would be accomplished by using large landing crafts
that are stowed onboard the warships. If the order arrived, this
Marine Unit would be a part of an invasion force with the
probable purpose of securing Iranian ports or creating a
beachhead for a larger invasion. Included in this flotilla
include a Marine wing of 38 helicopters and a Coast Guard Vessel.

In route to the Persian Gulf,
this Naval strike force would be “performing anti-submarine drills
and operations” off the coast of Hawaii in anticipation of combating
the Iranian submarine fleet in the Persian Gulf and the Arabian
Sea. Joining this group will be a Marine wing of 38 helicopters, a Seattle
based U.S. Coast Guard Vessel plus a Canadian Navy frigate, the H.M.C.S.
Ottawa asthe twentieth naval deployment as the Conservative
government of Prime Minister Stephen Harper’scontribution by
Canada to the War on Terror.

As the fifth and smallest
branch of the U.S. Armed Forces, the uniqueness of the Coast Guard
is its division of responsibility between military, law enforcement and
maritime search and rescue. In times of war, the Coast Guard
fleet normally under the U.S. Department of Homeland Security will
at the request of the Defense Department comes under the control of
the Pentagon. As the potential military confrontation looms on the
horizon, the Coast Guide’s fleet has the capability of entering
shallow ports that larger ships cannot enter. They also are capable
of securing beachheads and port cities, interception of enemy vessels
and maritime security operations. In the expected potential military
catastrophe in which a U.S.vessel is damaged by hostile enemy action, the Coast Guard can assist
in the search and rescue plus provide speedy support on protecting the
Navy ships.

With the urgency and immediacy
of the deployment of the western fleet from San Diego came realization
of the “Prepare to Deploy Order” as reported on September 17, 2006 by CNN of
a recent Times Magazine report. As written:

CNN
Report – “The Time Magazine article
intimates that the operation could result in heavy American casualties.
“The first message was routine enough: a ‘Prepare to Deploy Order’
sent through naval communications channels to a submarine, an Aegis-class
cruiser, two minesweepers and two mine-hunters. The orders didn't
actually command the ships out of port; they just said be ready to move
by October 1 [2006]. A deployment of minesweepers to the east coast of Iran would seem to suggest that a much discussed, but until now largely theoretical,
prospect has become real: that the U.S. may be preparing
for war with Iran.”

The reports are scattered and
indirect but within the international media the continuing round
of threats to attack Iran and Syria have been emitting for over a year.
One of the latest was The Sunday Times report on March 5, 2006
titled, “NATO may
help U.S. Strikes in Iran” that stated:

The
Sunday Times - When Major-General Axel
Tüttelmann, the head of NATO’s Airborne Early Warning and Control Force,
showed off an AWAC’s early warning surveillance plane in Israel a
fortnight ago, he caused a flurry of concern back at headquarters in
Brussels. It was not his demonstration that raised eyebrows, but what he
said about NATO’s possible involvement in any future military strike
against Iran. “We would be the first to be called up if the NATO council
decided we should be,” he said. NATO would prefer the emphasis to remain on
the “if”, but Tüttelmann’s comments revealed that the military alliance
could play a supporting role if America launches airstrikes against Iranian
nuclear targets.”

At the same time, the Israeli
government is also expected to be a participant in any future War
with Iran. This may be an attack on their own or in coordination
with other military alliances. The same report in The Sunday Times also
reported the following:

The Sunday Times – “Israel’s special forces are said to be
operating inside Iran in an urgent attempt to locate the country’s
secret uranium enrichment sites. “We found several suspected sites last
year but there must be more,” an Israeli intelligence source said. They are
operating from a base in northern Iraq, guarded by Israeli soldiers
with the approval of the Americans, according to Israeli sources. The commander
of Israel’s nuclear missile submarineswarned Iran indirectly in a
comment to an Israeli newspaper last week that “we are able to hit strategic
targets in a foreign country”.

The Israelis fear Iran may reach the “point of no
return” — at which it has the capacity to enrich uranium to bomb-grade
purity — in the next few months. The Americans are more
interested in the point at which Iran is close to developing an
actual bomb, thought to be at least three years away.

This divergence in the media
may be more for “chaff” to deflect from expecting the unexpected.
Even so, with the observations of military buildups, the rhetoric and war
games are also escalating.

In an article titled, “War
Signals?” What is the White House Planning in Relation to Iran?”, Dave
Lindorff, with the Centre for Research on Globalism, wrote on September
28. 2006 that the “shifting in the wind” by the Bush
Administration raised global concerns for a possible War against
Iran. According to Retired Colonel Gardiner, a former teacher of
military strategy at the National War College, he made an important
comment on the departure and arrival of the three Naval task forces.

Colonel
Gardiner – “The [U.S. Navy] carrier deployment and a scheduled Persian Gulf arrival date of October 21 [2006] is
“very important evidence” of war planning. He says, “I know that some
naval forces have already received 'prepare to deploy orders’ [PTDOs],
which have set the date for being ready to go as October 1 [2006]. Given
that it would take about from October 2 to October 21 to get those forces to
the [Persian] Gulf region, that looks about like the date” of any
possible military action against Iran.

(A PTDO
means that all crews should be at their stations, and ships and
planes should be ready to go, by a certain date—in this case, reportedly, October
1.) Gardiner notes, “You cannot issue a PTDO and then stay ready
for very long. It's a very significant order, and it’s not done
as a training exercise…

I think
the plan’s been picked: bomb the nuclear sites in Iran," says
[Colonel] Gardiner. "It's a terrible idea, it's against U.S. law and it's against international law, but I think they've decided to do
it." Gardiner says that while the United States has the capability to
hit those sites with its cruise missiles, "the Iranians have many more options than we [the United States] do.

Of
course, Gardiner agrees, recent ship movements and other signs of
military preparedness could be simply a bluff designed to show toughness
in the bargaining with Iran over its nuclear program. But with the Iranian
coast reportedly armed to the teeth with Chinese Silkworm anti-ship missiles,
and possibly even more sophisticated Russian anti-ship weapons, against
which the [U.S.] Navy has little reliable defenses, it seems unlikely
the Navy would risk high-value assets like aircraft carriers or cruisers
with such a tactic. Nor has bluffing been a Bush [Administration] MO
[tactic] to date.

The Pentagon
responded to the Time magazine report by stating that the Chief of Naval
Operations had merely asked the U.S. Navy to “put ‘fresh eyes’ on old U.S. plans to blockade two Iranian oil ports on the [Persian] Gulf.” This response
in itself is questionable to analysts. Why would the United States want
to stop the flow of oil from Iran, a major petroleum exporting nation,
which would harm U.S. allies and the world economy?”

If the United States led coalition does engage the Iranian forces in military
conflict, the prophetic searcher will have one more literal “key”
to open the prophetic understanding of scripture. It has been the diligent
investigation of BibleSearchers to determine the interconnections
between the prophetic messages first written in Hebrew and
Chaldean in the Book of Daniel. This is especially true in chapter
eight as Daniel was personally engaged in watching
that epic battle between the Ram with
two great horns engaged in conflict with
the he-Goat
that had one great horn.

When the God of Israel asks
us to “watch and be ready,” He was saying in effect, “What you
will behold is a geo-political battle that will be engaged for centuries
by forces that seek to dominate the world and will carry out their
agenda for world domination.” The final stages of this battle
for domination will pit the forces represented in the ancient
empire of Cyrus’ Persian Empire that will be engaged against the forces
representing the ancient empire of Greece’s Alexander the Great.

Here we lock in this conflict
the oriental world of the Persians in which the “Laws of the Medes and the Persians”
was supreme that even the emperor could not change against the occidental world of the Greeks who diligently export their culture of Hellenistic
democracy to the nations around them.

It was the Jewish people who
fought to the death in the Maccabean War as they tried to prevent
this Hellenistic cultural onslaught from contaminating their covenant
in keeping the Torah with their God, HaShem, one hundred sixty
years before the birth of Jesus.

When Greecewas eventually
swallowed up by the Roman Empire, the Grecian culture became dominate
and Roman Empire was transformed into the Greco-Roman Empire. So
also, early gentileRoman Christianity was transformed
from her Jewish Nazarene roots and became a Hellenistic Greco-Roman
religion.

Today we see the resurrection of these ancient empires and
their world views now coming into conflict with each other in our
literal geo-political-religious world scene. They are replaying
their ancient military and political agendas upon our modern geo-political
map. When we explore the matrix of these resurrected empires,
we also see a blend of several cultures and ancient world systems. The
questions that we ask first is, “Who is the ram and who are the two
great horns that give power to the ram? When will this battle be
played out on the world’s scene? We also must ask, “Who is this he-goat
and who is the great horn that will epitomize the military speed and
strength of the he-Goat?”

BibleSearchers has carefully
documented in the series on Daniel
Eight the following articles:

Christian and Jewish prophetic
scholars have written extensively
on the fact that the “ancient power” of the ram was the ancient Persian Empire that was empowered by the might and forces of the Medes and the
Persian. Today as documented in the article, “The
Globalist Red Internationale Axis –Greater
Mongolian Dynasty of Russia, China and Persia”we discovered the remarkable imperial axis of
power that connected the “ram” with the “two great horns.” This ancient
axis of brutal military force became the over-dominating power of
the Mongolian Empire that spread from Russia on the EuroAsian
continental divide, through Persia reaching down into the Middle
East and over thousands of miles to the coastline of the great Pacific Ocean and the land of the ancient Chinese. Here stood the “Mongolian
Imperial Axis” of the Kipchak Khanate of
Russia and the Golden Horde that almost
took down medieval Europe.

To the east, Hulagu Khan of
the Ilkhanate over Shi’ite Persiavirtually destroyed Sunni Baghdad in 1258. Hulagu
Khan prepared to send troops to Egypt with the intent to massacre
the populations between Baghdad and Cairo. This opened a virtual
“blood war between Mongolian brothers” that ruled over Russia and Persia.

In 1262, as Hulagu Khan
was returning to Persian from the Mongolian Military Council that
elected Kublai Khan as the Grand Mongolian Khan, a civil war
erupted between the forces of Berke Khan of the Russian Kipchak
Khanate and Hulagu Khan of the Il-Khanate of Persia. With the assistance
of Sultan Baibars of the Egyptian Mameluks, the returning Hulagu
Khan was assassinated. Why?

A little known fact of history
was that Berke, the new Khan of the Golden Horde called the Russian
Kipchak Khanate had been converted to Islam. He in turn, in rage
over his brother’s treatment of the Muslim people, sought to eliminate
him. It was not only Baghdad with the murder
of the Caliph Al-Musta’sim but also Syria, Jerusalem and even Mecca that Hulagu was seeking to destroy.This extension
of the Mongolian Persian thrust into the Middle East was prevented
and the Sunni Islamic leaders that were protecting the Jewish
people were spared.

To the Far East, the third
part of the Mongolian Axis became the Kublai Khanate of China. Under the leadership of Kublai, the new Grand Khanof the
Mongolians became the dominating force in China and Indo-China. This
powerful force remained over the centuries as the Manchuriansdominated Chinese politics until the rise of the Communistic State of
China.

This “ram like beast” of
Shi’ite Persia has now been empowered with a messianic mission to herald
the coming of the first Islamic messiah called the Mahdi Messiah. They
hope to hasten this day by bringing chaos into this world and refocus
our attention as we revisit the prophetic pages of Daniel. This event
may literally anchor us into the prophetic matrix at the time of
the end.

Daniel
8:5-7 (Western English translated) –
“And as I was considering, behold, a he goat
came from the weston the face of
the whole earth, and touched not the
ground: and the goat had a
notable horn between his eyes. And he came
to the ram that had two horns, which I had seen standing
before the river, and ran unto him in the fury of his power.”

“And I
saw him come close unto the ram, and he
was moved with choler against him, and smote the ram,
and brake his two horns: and there was no power in the ram to stand
before him, but he cast him down
to the ground, and stamped upon him: and there was none that could deliver the ram out of
his hand.” (Translated
NKJV)

Daniel
8:5-7 (Rabbinic translated) – “I
was observing, and behold! The he-goat comes from the
west, across the surface of the whole earth, not touching the ground. And the he-goat had a conspicuous horn between its eyes. It came up to the
horned ram I had seen standing before the river, and ran at it
with fury of its might.

“I saw it
reach the ram. It fought bitterly with it, and smote the ram and broke
its two horns. The ram lacked the
strength to stand before it. It threw
it to the ground and trampled it, and there was no
one to rescue the ram from it.”

(Translated by Rabbi Hersh Goldwurm in “Daniel” published by
Mesorah Publications)

The “two great horns” today are Russia and China. The former horn of Russia was once powerful
with a mighty empire but was taken down by the western globalists
of the Golden Internationale when the “Iron Curtain” collapsed in 1991.
Russia became bankrupt and lost her nuclear and military
hegemony of power. Russia was connected to the international
bankers of the International Monetary Fund through Frankfurt
Germany, the home of the international banking concerns of the Jewish
Rothschild family.

Russiasoon became beholden
economically to the Shabbatean
Jewsas a third world state.
As the oil rich fields controlled by the Jewish Oligarchs in Russia came into full production, the government of Russiaquietly and quickly began to dismantle the power of the Jewish
Oligarchs, by imprisonment and exile, that once controlled 80% of
the natural resources in Russia. Today Russia is rising
again as the Russian “Bear” for the next battle of engagement. She
is smaller and weaker than before, but that also was prophetically
envisioned for the “last great horn”, the “Dragon” of China is becoming the greatest.

Daniel
8:3-4 – “Then I lifted up mine eyes,
and saw, and, behold, there stood before the river a ram which had two horns: and the two horns were high;
but one was higher than the other, and the higher came up last.

I saw the
ram pushing westward, and northward, and
southward; so that no beasts might stand before him, neither was there any that could deliver
out of his hand; but he did according to
his will, and became great.”(Translated
by the NKJV)

Daniel
8:3-4 – “I raised my eyes and saw,
and behold! A ram is standing before the
river, and it has horns; and the horns are high, but one is higher than the other, and the higher one is coming up last.

I saw a ram goring westward, and northward and southward, and no beasts could
stand before it, nor could anyone
rescue from it. It did as it
pleased and grew. (Translated by Rabbi Hersh Goldwurm in
“Daniel” published by Mesorah Publications)

When we look for the battle
lines of engagement, we also must remember in the modern political
battles, we are not necessarily looking for ultimate destruction but
actual control. Power, greed and control are the mantra of
the rise of the final empires of the prophets. It will be the lust for
power of domination, the lust of greed to control all the natural
resources that will feed the political “beasts” that have an insatiable
lust to control all the peoples upon this planet earth.

This battle has been carried
out on this planet in two great world wars. When the leaders of the
nations of the world talk about World War III, they do not
realize that they are fulfilling a biblical theme of “threes” that
are imbedded with prophecies of Daniel and Revelation. Lest we
forget, these are not imperial powers of good and evil. Lest we get
our personal nationalistic idealism mixed with our religious
conceptions, the quest for world domination is driven by the
powers of darkness.

Russian is not the “motherland”
of goodness against the domination
force of America’s modern western culture of evil. America is not the embodiment of a “nation under God” that is fighting
a war of righteous indignation againstthe Islamic
fundamentalist “evil” that is threatening her lust and quest for world
domination over the oil resources in the nations around the world.

The only power of goodness and
righteousness will be the arrival of the Maschiach of Israel (Messiah of Israel). He will be accepted and recognized only by a “remnant” of
the “chosen ones” of Israel who keep all the “commands” of the Torah
and the “saints” who have the “faith of Jesus Christ.” For those
who seek their pathway of goodness and righteousness fully within the religious
systems of Judaism, Christianity and Islam, think again. These are religious
systems that are built upon the framework of man’s carefully crafted
religious institutionalism that hamper the true freedom of expression
and allegiance to One God and His Son, Yahshua (Jesus).

There truly is only one God of
the Universe. The biblical pathwayspoken about in both the Old
Testament (TaNaKh) and the New Testament (Brit Hadassah)extends
to the throne of the Almighty One of Israel“through” the Torah
observant person of Yahshua haMaschiach
(Jesus the Messiah). He
was recognized in His day as a disciple
of Hillel the Greatand carried and
lived out in his life the highest standard of righteousness as a Tzadik
(righteous person) on this planet earth. He fulfilled the mantle
of His authority in His mission to “seek and to save” the “lost
tribes of the House of Israel.” In that quest, He opened the
flood gates of righteousness and salvation to all mankind, not to
the Jews only but also to the “righteous gentile” so that “all
men might be saved.”

The battle between the “ram” and the he-goat” is not a battle between
goodness and evil. It is a global battle for world domination. The
nation of American is not fighting an evil empire for we all
are part of an evil empire that is hindering the arrival of imperial
forces of goodness that will only come with the Messiah of Israel. The battle of Daniel 8 is an epic struggle between the he-goat
with one great horn that represents the western nations’ globalist quest
for world domination by the economic global powers of the Golden Internationale comprised
of the European Union fronted by the immense aerial power of the United States. The Persian Ram with two great hornssupported is
the Shi’ite Nation of Iran’s (Persia)quest to establish a Shi’a
Islamic Caliphate in their bid for world domination. They are financed
by the eastern oriental powers ofthe Red Internationale of
the Communist Leninist-Marxist nations of Russia and China.

If the United States led
coalition does engage the Iranian forces in military conflict, the prophetic searcher will have one more
literal “key” to lock in this age as truly the prophetic “time of the
end.” It has been the diligent investigation of BibleSearchers to
determine the interconnections between the prophetic messages were
first written in the Hebrew and Chaldean languages in the Book
of Daniel. This is especially true in chapter eight as Daniel was personally
engaged in watching that epic battle between the Ram
with two great horns engaged in conflict
with the he-Goat that had one great
horn.

The Iranian military strength
is a force of considerable power that can inflictsignificant
damage to the Western Coalitions forces in both theatres of war in the
Persian Gulf and the Mediterranean Sea. The American led battle
lines are in the Persian Gulf and thereby the focus of this
American naval Armada that headed to Iran.

The Iranian military is composed
of two great divisions; the Iranian Armed Forces and the Iranian
Revolutionary Guard. Within each branch of the Iranian military are
naval forces; the naval branch of the Iranian Armed Forces and
the Navy within the Iranian Revolutionary Guard.

With the assistance of the
Russians and the Chinese, these forces that were depleted at the end
of the War between Iran and Iraq in 1988 have now been improved,
refitted and updated. The long term strategic intent of military
readiness of Iran since the fall of the Shah of Iran, seen as a puppet of the American government, the Mullah led Shi’ite government
of the Ayatollahs is focused their defense against the “imperial quest”
of America and the western economic forces that dominated
their lands for centuries. These forces of domination came initially
from the global reach of the British Empire and the later League of
Nation’s“British
and the French Mandates”.

The aim of both Iranian naval
forces is purported for their defense against what their future
expectations will be an invasion or attack by the United States. The stated
intent by Iranian
President Mahmoud Ahadimadijadis to create
an Islamic Caliphate Empire, to become a world dominating empire, to
“kill all the Jewish people in the Middle East” and “to drive the
Jewish people into the sea.” He also sees his prophetic mantle
to become a herald of chaos into the world to hasten the coming of the Mahdi and
the still future Second Islamic Messiah, Isis ben Miriam (Jesus son of Mary). The Iranian
Shi’ite engagement with the western world and especially the British
quest for global imperial domination from the 18th to the 20th
centuries has imbedded a fervent and implacable resistance to western
global domination.

The Iranian Naval defenses,
though very small compared to the dominating international
naval presence of the United States, it carries with it some unique features; speed, smallness, easy
maneuverability and capable of carrying a significant deadly force.

The Nation of Iran has
the only Islamic fleet of submarines in the Middle East. These include a fleet of both Iranian and Russian made
submarines plus a fleet of Iranian made mini-subs that could be used
for suicide bombers. In the event of a missile attack by Iranian
military forces, they would be aimed against two main enemies: Israel and the U.S.Naval forces within the Persian Gulf.

The older model diesel Russian
attack subs are not necessarily limited
to engagement in the Middle Eastern waters of the Persian Gulf, the Gulf of Omar and the Arabian Sea. They also have the capacity to ply
the international waters of the Atlantic or Pacific and carry the
X-55 cruise missiles for deployment against the continental United States.

With the addition of a reported
three Kiko-class submarines, the Iranian Navy does have the capacity
to launch ballistic missiles while submerged under water. These
include the Sunburn anti-ship missile, the French Exocet missile
and the potential of a nuclear tipped cruise missile. These subs
would be sent out with special assignment and deployed to destroy as
many of the U.S. Naval Armada that is heading to their coastline in
the Persian Gulf.

The Iranian Navy also
included many ROVs (remotely operated vehicles), many surface ships
of various sized plus naval airborne units that include helicopter
squadrons, anti-ship missiles and minesweepers. Such is the reason
for the unique features of this American Naval Armada that is heading
towards Iran.

The Iranian forces are also
buffered with a large variety of “Patrol Torpedo (PT) boats of effective
size to be used against larger warships. It was the Naval
Commander Kouchaki in the Fars News Agency (FNA) that reported that:

Iranian
Naval Commander Kouchaki – “Joshan [a
new Iranian PT boat] enjoys the world’s latest technology, specifically
with regard to its military, electrical and electronic systems, frame and
chassis, and it has the capabilities required for launching powerful
missiles…Similar to Iran’s first PT boat ‘Peykan’, ‘Joshan’
also has a speed of over 45 sea knots which makes it even faster
than the same generation of PT boats manufactured by other countries.
The vessel is capable of using various missiles and rockets with a range
beyond 100 km [62.14 miles],high maneuverability power that helps
it to escape torpedoes, and enjoys the most advanced sea shell of the
world called ‘Fajr’.”

This specially designed
76mm-caliber hull or shell is with advanced
technology that only Iran, the United States and Italy can manufacture
gives each boat a logistical advantage with missiles that can hit air
targets up to 23 thousand feet in the air.

In addition to the Iranian
Patrol Torpedo (PT) boat, the Iranian Navy also hosts the largest
hovercraft fleet in the world. They can swiftly carry an attack against
a naval armada with catastrophic effects. The Iranianmilitary
engagement strategy is to have “swarms of boats” tie up the U.S.
Navy long enough to launch its Soviet-era attack submarines that can
carry cruise missiles with nuclear warheads. These in turn would be followed
by Iranian built mini-subs plus a fleet of “corvettes and missile PT
boats that could carry the “Sunburn,” the Chinese “Silkworm”
missiles, both of which are swift, accurate, deadly and difficult to
intercept. As such the U.S. lead Naval Armada in the Persian Gulf in the minds of the Iranian military strategistswould become “floating targets” or “sitting
ducks.”

This battle line depicts the proverbial “David and Goliath” imagery now
created a hundredfold where the immense battleships are struck
with lightning force such as the U.S.S. Cole in Yemen was disabled
by a much more primitive water craft. Hundreds of hovercraft and
Patrol Torpedo (PT) boats aimed against this American Armada
could bring up images of the catastrophe of the Spanish Armada (la
Armada Invencible (Invincible Fleet) that sailed under the orders
of the Catholic King Philip II of Spain against Protestant England
in the undeclared Anglo-Spanish War of 1585-1604.

As the Armada was anchored off
the coastline of Calais, France in a semi-crescent flotilla, eight pitch
and gun powdered filled “fire ships” were sent within the Spanish
fleet. The chaos and havoc that resulted scattered the Armada,
demoralized the Spanish forces. With the harrying of the British ships,
the Armada sailed around Britain and Ireland only to meet the most
northernmost recorded hurricane in history of the last “Little Ice Age”This left a large bulk of the Spanish Armadasunk
along the western reefs of Ireland.

Through the year 2006, the Iranian
military has stepped up its military exercises or “war games.” On April
2006 in the Persian Gulf and the Gulf of Oman the Iranian Revolutionary Guardtested the “world’s
fastest”anti-ship missile that
reportedlyhit a top speedof 225 miles per hour. It was designed
to attack large submarines with a speed too fast for the subs to evade
even if detected on radar or sonar. Also included in the “war
games” was a “stealth hybrid flying boat, a radar-evading missile
with multiple warheads, a rocket-torpedo and a deadly
anti-ship missile that cannot be jammed.” All this was done
as the Iranian scientists and scientists reported that they had successfully
enriched uranium with Iran now in the International Nuclear Club,
whether the world wanted to accept it or not.

On August 19, 2006, the Iranian
Navy began testing a “submarine-to-surface”anti-ship missile with the military strategic ability to shut
down the Strait of Hormuz and disrupt the passageway that carries
40% of the oil to the rest of the world. This was conducted with a much
larger and massive
military exercise along the provinces of Sistan and Baluchistan
provinces that border on the Gulf of Oman, Pakistan and the NATO controlled
garrisons in Afghanistan to the east. These exercises will remain in
progress throughout September and possibly into October as
the U.S. led Naval Armada heads to Iran.

This latter war game, still in progress, is
being held in 14 of Iran’s 30 provinces that include some of the most
volatile regions in the world. They are the “Anglo-American occupied
Iraq,
the Persian Gulf, the Caucasus (Armenia and the Republic of
Azarbaijan), the Caspian Sea, Turkey, Pakistan, Turkmenistan, and
Afghanistan.

Iranian Brigadier-General Mohammad-Reza Ashtiani – “’The war games will
take place in the provinces of West Azarbaijan, East Azarbaijan,
the Khorasans, Kurdistan, and the province of Sistan and Baluchestan’—all
of these are Iranian border provinces that would be frontlines in any
possible war between Iran and the United States and have been experiencing
disturbing episodes of terrorist attacks, kidnappings, violence, and
recent instability—which Iran has held both the United States, Britain,
and Israel responsible for.

The Iranian government and people,
according to national sources, have been watching with caution and
concern as they observe “hostile American-led forces” that are settling
up bases and regional sympathetic governments that are encircling the
Nation of Iran. These include American bases in the primary
territories of Iraq and Afghanistan. Under the auspiciousness of
preventing increased smuggling and narcotic travel, the Iranian
forces are posing as though their borders have been increasingly
secured. These military maneuvers are depicted as internal
security maneuvers, but they are actually testing military mobilizationmaneuvers as their concern rises for the expected attack
by the American coalition. The fate of the Iranian Nuclear Energy
Program is reaching a critical mass point for a show-down against
the American led Bush administration and the European Union of Germany, Britain, France and Italy. The fate of the entire region, according to the Iranians,
is tied to each other: Palestine, Israel, Iraq, Lebanon, Afghanistan, Syria, Sudan, the Persian Gulf, plus the direction of the
strategic balance in the Caucasus in Central Asia.

Yet the fate of the Iranians is not
tied to their nuclear plants but how they feel they share
their futurewith Israel. In a world where the destiny of
a nation is tied to the annihilation of a neighboring nation, the fate
of the entire region and the entire world will be affected.

BibleSearchers scans the
world for information that has relevance on the time of the end. It is our
prayer that this will allow the believers in the Almighty One of Israel to
“watch and be ready”. Our readiness has nothing to do trying to halt the
progression of evil on our planet earth. In our readiness, we seek to be
prepared for the coming of the Messiah of Israel so that goodness and evil will
be manifested in its fullest. Our preparation is a pathway of spiritual
readiness for a world of peace. Our defender is the Lord of hosts. The time of
the end suggests that the Eternal One of Israel’s intent is to close out this
chapter of earth’s history so that the perpetrators of evil, those that seek
power, greed and control, will be eliminated from this planet earth. The
wars of the heavens are being played out on this planet earth and humans will
live through it to testify of the might, power, justice and the love of the God
of Israel. In a world of corruption and disinformation, we cannot always
know what the historical truth is and who is promoting evil or
mis-information. We cannot guarantee our sources but we will always seek
to portray trends that can be validated in the Torah and the testimony of the
prophets of the Old and the New Testament.
